Fins D is okay, thanks to their run D - they will be better once they can get slightly better vs the pass

 

[Paolo305613]

That sack by the Fins D there is thanks to what I said earlier - Disguise the look - bring pressure from both ends and rattle Aaron -Fins force punt. Block it and have it at the 16 yard line of the redzone

Jonathan Freeny... An Ireland guy... just saying

weak ass quick out screen pass play to start

 

[FlyerFinFan]

I agree with the call on 4th but Tanny maybe should have held and run at least once.

 

[FlyerFinFan]

D needs to hold again. One first down I was thinking toss it to the corner for Wallace but the screen was probably safer call and worked before.

 

[Paolo305613]

Want to see some formations where we have both Miller and Moreno in back field... Tannehill targets Hartline and the drive stalls... for some reason we go for it on 4th down and come up empty on a momentum shifting play.

Gotta hope that doesnt haunt the Fins now - but wouldnt be surprised or even mad if it does -- you dont go for it in that situation - thats the first thing - secondly, you dont target drop machine Hartline in that situation

 

[Paolo305613]

THat drive was in trouble when they started it with a weak ass screen pass - it was buried when they targeted Hartline

 

[Paolo305613]

This first quarter has been all about the Fins finding ways to help the Packers win this game so far

 

[Paolo305613]

Oh and this whole idea that the Fins D will benefit from Philbin being familiar with the Packers offense... Dont buy it. Like I said, our pass D isnt good enough to make our defense as good as it can be as a whole

 

[Paolo305613]

Packers run D the worst in the NFL, yet we only have 9 yards on them to this point. No balance. Run it more on 1st down to make second and third easier

 

[Paolo305613]

Horrible play call leads to negative yardage on the run and an INT. Fins continue to gift wrap this one for GB

 

[Paolo305613]

Next offensive drive - Fins must find a way to run the ball on the perimeter - Get the RBs and TE involved in the passing game - then go to Wallace, Landry or Matthews... Of course, if the Packers get 7 here - it changes. This game will get out of han

 

[Paolo305613]

Good sack. Fins might want to risk it and apply pressure on every play - its working... If they take their foot off the gas for a moment on defense, A-Rod will kill them

 

[FlyerFinFan]

The have to run outside or cut it back outside as the Packers D is committed to the middle. Tanny needs to recognize this.

 

[Paolo305613]

We need a long methodical, scoring drive but seems like a daunting task for this group

 

[FlyerFinFan]

Landry looking dangerous...

Agreed need to find run game and don't give up.

Yes. No matter what - Running through the middle is weak and just not smart. Play calling in this drive will determine whether we stay in it for a little longer or allow the Packers to bust it open

 

[Paolo305613]

that was a weak outside toss run call - and a tough 3rd down and the drive is over. Its really disturbing that this offense gets worst with EVERY drive.

 

[FlyerFinFan]

Fins are probably the only team in the league where the bye hurts them....they look horrible on offense and tackling.
